The week begins with a Cardinal Grand Cross. Contrary to what many astrologers will have you believe there is nothing sinister about this. Grand Crosses bring us all the energy to change long standing patterns of behaviour. Think of them literally as ‘crossroads’ where you are being given the opportunity to take a different path.
On the 23rd the Sun enters Virgo and on the same day a T-square forms in Cancer, Capricorn and Aries. It’s here to reinforce the message for positive change brought by Monday’s Grand Cross. There’s a soul calling here as well delivered by Neptune which plays a hidden role in this aspect. Neptune will be at its closest to Earth on the 24th and the message here is to approach any issues to do with change from a place of spiritual refinement. Time to think of the most elegant solution you can come up with and implement this. Remember, you can’t change others – only yourself.
On the 24th Mars planet of action, enters intense and transformative Scorpio. Let’s not forget that Mars used to rule Scorpio before the discovery of Pluto. Mars is asking how you exercise your power here – in both personal relationships and your profession life. Are you operating from a place of power – which is a place of confidence, or powerlessness? Powerless Mars often takes refuge in aggression or anger. There’s a huge difference between this and being assertive. If we have issues around this we may well be confronted with people and situations that test us.
On the 25th the sky lights up with a Grand Fire Trine enabling us all to be able to tap into a fabulous source of energy and inspiration on a collective level. If you’ve been searching for the enthusiasm you need to make something happen expect new ideas and inspiration to flood in.
